Hi Robert,

I have been in correspondence with Michael and we have been sorting out the family secrets..lol. Its great to hear from you and I will PM you my email address if you want to get in touch.

Hi,
While I can't add any info about the Bradley family, I thought you might be interested in some other relevant information.
My late father was a partner in W.G.Bradley & Sons for many years up until 1982 and probably knew your relative. Indeed I worked there myself for a few years as a Legal Executive back in the 70's. I attach a photo of the offices on Ormand Quay (The building with the blue and red doors). If your interested I can send you a better one. It is now a listed building so no major changes can be made to it. The Building was like a time capsule when I was there. Your relatives office (on the left in the picture) became the Interview room and was practically untouched since his day. There was a huge mahogany desk in the room and in the drawers I remember were several unread copies of the 'Irish Times' dating from the early 1900's. Some minor repairs were been done to a wall in the room at one stage and the builders found a cavity in the wall containing a small metal box with some coins in it...How long it had been there was never determined. The firm moved from Ormand Quay in the late 80's.

Hi Michael, thanks for the PM, contents noted. I don't have time now to give you all the details but things will start to become clear when you realise that Rudy Heise had TWO families. His first marriage was to your Great Grandmother Sarah Jane Hartwell and his second (bigamous) marriage to my Grandmother Ella (Ellen was a typo) Francis Henbrey. He married my Grandmother using his brothers name Karl Willy Ernst and after that as far as officialdom was concerned he was Ernst Heise. And where did he keep disappearing too? Simple, He moved with his second family, my Grandmother, their first son Ernest and the twins Max and Ella (Millicent was her second name) to Dublin. I will post more later.

Hi Michael, I don't know how I missed this posting when I was looking up my Heise relatives. I followed your story with great interest and can tell you that you have only HALF the story but you certainly filled in a lot of blanks for me. You went down a number of blind alleys by assuming that Rudolf Gustav Paul Heise and Karl Willy Ernst Heise were two different people, however they were one and the same, my grandfather Rudy, but Sarah Jane was not my Grandmother. You had a lot of names but what you were missing was how they all connected. So now I can fill in a few blanks for you. You can e-mail me at (*)
